Mistakes Were Made: Reflections on Being a Mediocre Father

In this wide ranging collection, Shane Borrowman covers the topics facing modern American fathers, including creepy bathroom scum, cowboy boots, criminal family members, cheesy pickup lines, and fertility room porn.

Shane Borrowman teaches writing and literature courses at the University of Montana Western, where he serves as Chair of the Department of English. He is editor or co-editor of ten books, including four writing textbooks and six collections or original scholarship. None of this matters to his twins, John and Samantha, who openly mock his ability to shoot a freethrow. Shane and his wife Elizabeth have been together for more than twenty years, despite her open support for the Seattle Seahawks.
